Company Man

Dm*


[Verse 1]
Gm     F   C          Dm
Passed down from your father,
Gm   F           C     Dm  Dm*
you come by it honestly
Gm    F   C       Dm
Passed out from exhaustion
Gm      F              C      Dm  Dm*
Looking around for some relief


[Pre-Chorus]
  Gm                          F
But you, put your money on the wrong horse
C                 Dm
All alone and in the middle of nowhere
Gm                       F
You put your money on the wrong horse
C                    Dm         Dm*
Premonitions start to whisper:


[Chorus]
Gm                                   F
When you've always been a company man
C                    Dm
But who did you used to be?
Gm                             F
You're out here flying the flag
C                         Dm
But lost track of what it really means
Gm                                   F
When you've always been a company man
C                              Dm
Got the ground coming out from underneath
    Gm           F             C               Dm      Bb Am
Hey company man, start walking on your own two feet!


[Verse 2]
Gm                  F
I get it, I get it, you can eat pretty good
    C                        Dm                      Dm*
But just cause you can doesn't mean that you should
Gm                   F
I get it, I get it, you're just misunderstood
C                               Dm               Dm*
You said, "gimmie a minute man, let me explain"


[Pre-Chorus]
Gm                              F
But you hitch your wagon to the wrong horse
C                             Dm                      Dm*
You turned around and asked, "How did we get here?"
Gm                          F
You hitch your wagon to the wrong horse
C                    Dm          Dm*
Premonitions start to whisper:


[Chorus]
Gm                                   F
When you've always been a company man
C                    Dm
But who did you used to be?
Gm                             F
You're out here flying the flag
C                         Dm
But lost track of what it really means
Gm                                   F
When you've always been a company man
C                              Dm
Got the ground coming out from underneath
    Gm           F             C               Dm      Bb Am
Hey company man, start walking on your own two feet!
